A loquat is a fruit tree. You can eat the fruit. I can't explain what they taste like but they are good.

Here is a picture of fruit on my tree.

The reason that the county puts a trap in my tree is to see if there are any Mediterranean Fruit Flies in it. They were a big problem for CA crops awhile back. If there are flies, they will be in the trap because they love loquats.

Thank you so much for asking that!! I wondered the same thing, and after reading the post I just assumed that was a local euphenism for....ummm...bodily parts that were...ummm...exposed? I mean, come on..."Not MY loquats you don't!"


Ummm..learn something new everyday. But, I don't think I'll EVER be able to try a loquat now without cracking up!

Now how did I miss this thread!!

It could have been worse. You could have walked right out to where he was and started talking to him up close and personal, before realizing you were buck naked!
